    Abstract Sjögren's disease is a heterogeneous autoimmune disorder that may be associated with systemic manifestations such as pulmonary or articular involvement. Systemic complications have prognostic implications and need to be identified and managed in a timely manner. Treatment should be tailored to the type and severity of organ involvement, ideally based on multidisciplinary evaluation.

    Abstract Clinical and histological similarities between sarcoidosis and tuberculosis have driven repeated investigations looking for a mycobacterial cause of sarcoidosis. Over 50 years ago, "anonymous mycobacteria" were suggested to have a role in the etiology of sarcoidosis. Both tuberculosis and sarcoidosis have a predilection for lung involvement, though each can be found in any area of the body. A key histopathologic feature of both sarcoidosis and tuberculosis is the granuloma-while the tuberculous caseating granuloma has an area of caseous necrosis with a cheesy consistency; the non-caseating granuloma of sarcoidosis does not have this feature. This article reviews and reiterates the complicity of the infectious agent,

    Abstract Sjogren's syndrome (SS) is a common, systemic autoimmune disorder primarily affecting the exocrine glands resulting in xerostomia and xerophthalmia. SS may also manifest with polyarthralgia, polyarthritis, polymyalgia, cutaneous/other organ vasculitis, interstitial lung disease, and/or various other disorders. The primary autoantibodies associated with SS and used as adjuncts to diagnosis are anti-Ro (SSA) and anti-La (SSB). The pathogenesis of SS is considered to involve genetic susceptibility and environmental triggers. An identified genetic susceptibility for SS lies in variants of the tumor necrosis factor alpha inducible protein 3 (

    Abstract Background and objective: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized oncologic treatment. Whether ICIs increase susceptibility to or provide protection against mycobacterial infections remains controversial. The objective of this narrative review is to summarize the literature on the link between ICI use and mycobacterial infections-tuberculosis and non-tuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections-and to critically discuss evidence linking ICIs with mycobacterial infections, the possible confounders, and, if indeed the ICIs predispose to such infections, the potential mechanisms of how this may occur.
    Methods: We conducted a literature search on PubMed for relevant articles published from 2011 to current time [2024] utilizing specific keywords of "immune checkpoint inhibitors", "programmed cell death protein-1", "PD-1", "programmed death-ligand 1", "PD-L1", "cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein-4", or "CTLA-4" with that of "non-tuberculous mycobacterial lung disease", "tuberculosis", or "mycobacteria". The bibliographies of identified papers were perused for additional relevant articles.
    Key content and findings: Ex vivo
    Conclusions: Studies are needed to test the hypothesis that ICIs may either protect or predispose to mycobacterial infections, depending on the baseline host immune status. Prospective studies are required of patients on ICIs that control for potential confounders as anecdotal case reports are insufficient to provide a causal link. Murine studies with ICIs are also required to corroborate or refute studies of mice with genetic disruption of an immune checkpoint.
